“Deep Song
Belief is what
buries us—that
& the belief in belief—
No longer
do I trust liltlessness
—leeward
is the world's
way—Go on
plunge in
—the lungs will
let us float.
Joy is the mile-
high ledge
the leap—a breath
above the lip of the abandoned
quarry—belief
the dark the deep.”

“There is no shortage of good days. It is good lives that are hard to come by. A life of good days lived in the senses is not enough. The life of sensation is the life of greed; it requires more and more. The life of the spirit requires less and less; time is ample and its passage sweet. Who would call a day spent reading a good day? But a life spent reading -- that is a good life.”
